“Vegetables begin to lose food
value and flavor as soon as they
are gathered. During the sum-
mer months, it is best to gath-
er the vegetables early in the
morning, but be sure they have
reached their peak in flavor and
texture, for freezing does not
improve their quality.
“It is necessary to scald vege-
tables in boiling water, before
freezing, to pie vent loss of qual-
ity and to preserve the vitamin
content. Freezing alone does not
stop the enzyme action in vege-
tables and if they are not scald-
ed, this action will cause unde-
sirable odors to develop along
with the loss of flavor and col-

CHICAGO, (UP) — Al Ca-
pone wouldn’t know the old
place today. Chicago has clean-
ed up.
So have some other midwest-
ern towns, notably Kansas City
and Des Moines, la., their po-
lice chiefs report.
Chicago, birthplace of the Ca
pone Snydicate, has less organ-
ized crime, vice, gambling and
racketeering than at any time
in its mature history, according
to police commissioner John C.
Prendergast.
When the Senate Crime In-
vestigating Committee comes
here early next month, Pren-
dergast said, it will find vir-
tually no slot machines or gam-
bling establishments in oper-
control over dissident elements.
Working agreements and ar-
rangements have replaced the
tommy gun. —.
Virgil Peterson, director of
the Chicago Crime Commission,
is a recognized authority on
the new diplomacy in gangster-
ism.
Peterson, who is expected to
be a star witness before the Sen-
ate Committee, said he has ac-
cumulated. evidence of working
agreements between Chicago
gangsters and those of other cit-
ies>
But there is no nationwide
organization with a single head,
he said.
When political tsiss Charles
Binaggio and his bodyguard
were slain in Kansas City there
were rumors of a tie-up be-
tween Chicago and Kansas City
gangsters. But Kansas City po-
lice chief Henry W. Johnson
said they never were confirm-
ed.
Johnson said Kansas City
now is “the cleanest city in the
U. S." He said there are no slot
machines, policy wheels or oth-
er forms of commercial gantlt-
ling within the city limits.

ATOMIC BLAST OVER CHICAGO—The familiar mushroom of
an atomic bomb explosion shot up 200 feet in the air over Chicago,
but not to signal the start of an atomic war. The simulated atomic
blast—set off by remote control by a cyclotron at Stanford Univer-
sity in Palo Alto, Calif.—was a send-off for the 1950 Chicago Fair,
which opened for the summer.
Most Folks Eat With Their Eyes
Says Banquet Man Of Big Hotel
Bv William F. O’Shea
NEW YORK (UP) Most peo-
ple eat with their eyes.
That at any rate is the con-
clusion of Clyde Harris, ban-
quet manager of New York’s
famed and fashionable Plaza
Hotel.

People care less about the
food than the service that goes
with it. Furthermore they don't
realize all the trouble waiters go
to keep them happy.
Since the war the profit of
most hotels has come from
the banquet hall and hotel man-
agers are thinking of new ways
to lure customers.
Out of tlie Plaza attic, Clyde
has dug up a fabulous gold ser-
vice which the hotel used in its
plushier days.
"People are getting to like
these things once more," he
said. "They enjoy the elegance
as much as they do the food.'
Harris, a gourmet himself, is
fond of remembering people
fond of remembering the famous
people who have enjoyed them-
selves at his banquets.
"There was the time Winston
Churchill was invited to lunch
by Col. William J. Donovan: He
got in by the wrong entrance
and had to walk through the
main dining room while every-
body stared. He really was em-
barrassed. When he got to
lunch he was all rigiit though.
He ate caviar by the pound and
dipped his cigar in his brandy,
the best brandy," Clyde said ad-
miringly.
Then there was the time FDR
came to dinner. He was a chain
smoker, Harris remembers, but
a good-natured man who always
ate what he was served unlike
other more finicky celebrities.
Clyde considers Harry Tru-
man the most skillful politician
he ever met. “He shakes hands
with everybody,” said Clyde,
"even the musicians."
Of all the parties lie has man-
aged, Harris considers Barbara
Hut ton’s famous shindigs by far
the most spectacular.
“I remember one she had in
1928. It was a coming-out party.
For this one the walls of the ball
room and even the foyer were
completely covered by banks of
trees. They spent $40,000 on
the flowers alone.”
